Cartel have been dancing together for 18 months. During their first audition they caused debate between the judges when Simon suggested they should continue in the competition without one of the members. However David, Alesha and Amanda defended the group as a whole and put them through to semi-finals.

Micky is a check-out worker from Essex who lives with his mum in their mobile home and is from a musical family. Micky wowed the judges with his performance of Bring Him Home. Simon told him that he felt the same charisma from Micky as the first time he saw Olly Murs. The judge’s responses moved Micky to tears and he was over the moon by the crowd’s reaction.
